Carrots

EverydayFresh

Carrots are a root vegetable recognized by their bright orange color, though purple, yellow, and white varieties also exist. Their crisp texture when raw softens to tender when cooked, releasing natural sweetness while retaining high beta-carotene content that converts to vitamin A. Low in calories and rich in fiber, fresh carrots serve as a versatile ingredient in raw snacks, roasted dishes, and cooked meals, while their gluten-free nature accommodates most dietary needs.
